The Minister is correct, however, that I used the word "compassion". I asked whether there was any compassion in the scheme to facilitate parents who were not in a position to care for their children. In such circumstances, the most appropriate solution is to provide care for them in a child care setting rather than at home. I am referring to vulnerable children.
